I think Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License is a natural choice but I'm not sure. Surely it would make little sense to license the [[voting|votes]] so keep them copyright of the user i.e. have the templates used for quick voting will be under CC-A-SA but the actual votes are not under GFDL or CC-A-SA.. Right ? This can be done by loading a dump into a temp database and deleting everything in the User-namespace and redumping. | I think Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License is a natural choice but I'm not sure.

The old plans called for having two wikis either [[Research Wiki]] and [[Publish Wiki]] ( suggested by the [[trolls]], focus on distinction of researchable stuff from publishable stuff ) or [[Content Wiki]] and [[Opinion Wiki]] ( suggested by [[User:Juxo]], effort founder, focus on isolation of factual content from subjective opinions ) but currently it looks like those plans are scrapped in favor of having only one [[Implementation Wiki]] to minimize governmental overhead. | The old plans called for having two wikis either [[Research Wiki]] and [[Publish Wiki]] ( suggested by the [[trolls]], focus on distinction of researchable stuff from publishable stuff ) or [[Content Wiki]] and [[Opinion Wiki]] ( suggested by [[User:Juxo]], effort founder, focus on isolation of factual content from subjective opinions ) but currently it looks like those plans are scrapped in favor of having only one [[Implementation Wiki]] to minimize governmental overhead. The '''[[voting]] pages''' of users will be copyright of the page owner i.e. '''not [[copyleft]]ed''' and not included in the dumps for forking. The voting pages of users will be NOINDEX and NOFOLLOW to stop them from getting included in search engine results. Likely the talk-namespace will be NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW so that the talk-pages of articles will be the research side of it and the actual main-namespace articles will be the publish side of it | ||

=== Ideas about using sub-articles extensively to avoid massive disambig collision === | |||
:<tt>consumium.org/wiki/en/Company/Brand/Product</tt>- For big corporations<br /> | |||
::<tt>consumium.org/wiki/en/Company/Feedback</tt> - for storing the feedbacks sent to the company via web-form or phone | |||
::<tt>consumium.org/wiki/en/Company/Brand/Product/Reviews</tt> reviews of the product | |||
:<tt>consumium.org/wiki/en/Company/Product</tt> - For smaller companies<br /> | |||
:<tt>consumium.org/wiki/en/Product</tt> - a redirect to Company/Brand/Product if Product name '''is not a company name'''<br /> | |||
:<tt>consumium.org/wiki/en/Country/City/District/Business</tt> (for businesses that have a few or one outlet(s))<br /> | |||
=== Sub-articleing vs. extensive and heavy use of categories === | |||
Not sure if sub-articleing is a good idea. using mediawiki's [[Special:Categories|categories]] instead to provide nested structures. Having subarticleing will affect search engine scoring differently from using categories. | |||

* <tt>[http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Data Extension:Data]</tt> In this extension data is described by '''item/key/value triplets''', where 'item' is typically the name of the article, 'key' the name of the data, and 'value' the actual data.

* <tt>[http://www.rastko.net/~nikola/wiki/index.php/Language Language extesion]</tt> - this is really excellent. it allows to have '''multi-lingual pages'''. Must learn more about this mysterious and evasive extension - it's not listed in mediawiki.org extension matrix - also changes the language of the mediawiki navigation | |||
